Thoughts on the 2019 seamaster diver 300m ss vsf 1:1 best edition black bezel white dial

[Sharky1528]

I received my watches from Lucy yesterday. Omega 300M VSF white dial. Everything aligned and looks very good. Lume is slightly greenish and noticeable but not a deal breaker. VSF has upgraded movement with black balance wheel and yes it does have the RED o ring on the He valve as per the genuine watch. So far this is my fave watch now.

i also received my Big Bang Unico Hublot. Excellent quality with a few minor flaws ( screws on case back marked from factory on installation ) other than that it’s a very good 1:1 unit and spectacular to wear.

What NO Pic's ???

Could someone with the rubber strap tell me the inner circumference when the clasp is on the innermost hole?

I'm interested in the VSF with rubber strap but from experience the rubber straps often don't fit smaller wrist very well.

Has anyone seen this watch with the metal bracelet? From what I've seen the rep metal bracelet is very close to 1:1

Oh my god, what wankers Puretime are!!!!!!

Good to have this forum. Almost ordered one from them, saw this, went with Fat Panda and got QC video showing whole 24h turn of hands... Thanks RWI.

a recent one from VSF. Is this a new beginning of a variation of the lume flaw??

In this case, instead of whole markers and hands lume greenish white, The lume color of the makers look very white but the lume color of the hands look slightly green-ish white?

How do you guys think?
Thanks.

I post this as specific concern and the majority of posts mentioned/interested/related in this topic.

I got one like this just before xmas it had noticeably discoloured hands compared to the markers.

I had given my 1st white dial 300, ( the one pictured earlier with the missing lume in the corner of the 3 marker ) to a friend and ordered another from a different TD.

Seems i cant get perfection

This is the new one with greenish hands ...It arrived DOA and was sent back on TD request to be fixed... It is now stuck somewhere in China due to virus

I don't think it's as yellow, no, but I'd say it's half a shade less white than I'd want. I wanted pure, snow white, but it's not quite pure white.

Nice pics mate. Whats your expirence with the quality of the rubber strap?

And the 2019 models are just new OMega releases if I am right. Or is a new Rep version?
Thanks for the info.

 

[GingerBubba]

Strap quality is good, no issues whatsoever.

I don't get what you mean re the rest of your question.

Guys,
I'm having an issue with mine.
I cannot screw in the pin to rewind / adjust the time /date. The thread is ripped and now it's impossible to screw it back in.
Do you have any idea if spare parts are available or if this issue is even fixable?

Thank you for the help.

Cheers

Chewy

It should be easily fixable for someone who knows what they're doing. Get in touch with a watchsmith.

Just got in my white VSF yesterday...the lume color is much improved over my black VSF from a few months ago. Here are a few shots in various light:

My QC photos of ‘the great white’ already approved, let me know what you guys think:

 

[GingerBubba]

Sorry (you did ask), but I'd have said no. The lume is too yellow for me (slightly, but it would bug me) and looks mismatched between hands and markers imo.

 

[Pombok]

That’s a good pick up, but not something that bothers me really.

 

[GingerBubba]

I'm very glad! It's funny how some things bug some people and not the next. I see people complaining about 'horrendous' misalignment on a watch and I think it looks bang on. Other things annoy the bejesus out of me whereas others just can't see a problem. This game is all about finding a watch you're happy with so I'm pleased you have.

 

[mrwatchman47]

Anyone happen to have one of these for sale in CONUS?

 

[qChella]

Hello guys, anyone received it nowadays? Any news about lume colors?

 

[Bobo1000]

Interested as well. Great looking watch.

 

[Pre7_2000]

I'm also interested to see if all the issues have been resolved.

Very nice for all of you to lend eachother a hand. I will not be ordering from Trusty Time....
